    The bottom tip of the ball should be aligned directly under your chin. You should place your dominant hand on the laces of the ball, similar to how a quarterback grips the football. The offhand is the guide hand and is placed on the middle of the ball opposite the dominant hand. The middle finger should be aligned parallel to the seam of the ball, pressing the palm into the ball and forcing it into the power hand. You need to roll and cock the power hand, which forms a slight bend in the wrist, and turns the laces of the ball toward the ground. The placement of the dominant hand is crucial. First, place the first knuckle of the index finger across the seam of the ball. Second place the middle finger and ring knuckles between the 2nd and 3rd laces of the ball, keeping them close together. Thirdly, place the little finger across the bottom seam of the ball. Lastly, place the thumb around the ball, forming a natural "V" with the index finger and thumb. The placement of the guide hand is also crucial. First, place the middle finger down the seam of the ball. The height of the middle finger on the seam helps determine…

    Preparatory Phase Preparatory Phase – The hold on the basketball. This is the strong/shooting hand in under the ball with the elbow under that creating a 90 degree angle with the elbow.

    Reggie Miller would dip his hands into a bucket of powder (it's really salt) so he can have a better grip on the ball, step up to the line holding the ball on his hip with his left hand and place his feet about 12-14 inches apart with his right foot slightly forward. He then would raise his arm straight up towards the basket with his hand bent as if he had just released the ball. Then he would take three consecutive dribbles, sit back into a slight crouch and let it fly. This was his free throw routine every time he went to the 15 foot line.…

To make things easier I will talk about the right handed layup (To do the left hand layup do everything I am about to tell you but in reverse). To start off you need to get close to the basket on the right hand side about where the bank is on the keyway. The bank being the bump on the keyway which is longer and wider than the rest of them. Then take a step with your right foot to get as close as possible to the hoop. Then once the left foot lands use it to jump up in the air. This should take about three seconds all together.

    First bend legs about 90 degrees. Next, bend the dominant arm which had the ball in it, like the 2 pointer. Then, put the non-dominant arm on the side of the ball. Push up with legs, jump, and at the same time push your arm with the ball, do not forget to move the hand down to push the ball. The three pointer is not the last shot to learn. The last shot the player would need to learn is a foul shot. This shot only happens when there is a shooting foul. It is one point. First,bend the legs 90 degrees like the first two shots, but the player must be behind the line. Bend the dominant arm 90 degrees with ball in it. Push up with legs, but the player can not cross the foul line, which is the straight line in front of the basket,so the player can do a small jump but, he can not cross the line. Then put non-dominant hand on the side of the ball. Next push dominant hand up and forward, and of course catapult it forward. After completing these steps the player can complete a foul shot.…

    Different coaches teach different ways to shoot the basketball. Confidence still plays an important role when shooting the basketball. The technique or proper shooting form also plays a key role when shooting the ball. Tips to remember when learning how to shoot are getting your feet squared up to the basketball goal, place the dominant foot a couple inches ahead of the non-dominant foot, and bend the knees. This is called the base of the jump shot. Other techniques include the hand placement on the ball. Place shooting hand behind and slightly underneath the basketball and place guiding hand on the side of the ball. Then raise the ball above the head, make sure the elbow is lined up with the goal and release the shot. Everything is in one motion. Different coaches teaches different ways to shoot the basketball, but this is the most common technique…
